Science in Sport and the Boels Dolmans Women’s Cycling Team have just launched a new, free, and comprehensive guide for women that want to take their cycling to the next level, with tips and advice coming straight from the professionals.
The free, downloadable 35 page guide details useful information for both beginner and hobbyist women cyclists that want to train at competition level, or to actually compete.
Members of the Boels Dolmans team give tips and advice, and talk about their preferred disciplines, favourite races, and best performances.
Olympic silver medallist Lizzie Armistead gives a Q&A session with valuable tips for women getting into riding, with her views on health, fitness, nutrition, and equipment.
A section about what life is like in the Women’s Pro Peleton gives a rare and detailed insight into what female cyclists face when competing, along with the contents of a professional’s kitbag, equipment that helps you compete at a high level, and training methods.
The guide also contains definitive knowledge about the particulars of nutrition, including staying hydrated, carb-loading, and helping your body recover post-race.
Finally, a free training plan is included: ‘Tackling Your First Sportive’
